//------------------------------// // An interesting morning // Story: The sleepless nights at Jack's house. // by Jack-N-Walker //------------------------------// When I had woken up in the morning I had felt an arm across me and I shrugged it off as nothing and tried to get up. This wasn't a good idea in the slightest. When I had started moving the mysterious arm had tightened it's grip on me to the point of near suffocation so I decided to lay back down and appease the being owning the arm. When I had done so I lifted the blankets off enough to see Luna peacefully sleeping there. "So cute," I whispered. Luna had begun to stir and I tried reassured her I was there with a calm back rub. This caused her to scoot up farther in the bed and lay on my pillow next to me. 'I can feel her breath on my neck this is way to intimate even Frosty would agree,' I tried to gently shake Luna awake but to no avail, my next attempt was to call out her name. "Luna it's time to wake up," I tried to sound as quiet as possible. Yet loud enough to wake her up. When I had thought all hope was lost I remembered she was ticklish so I began tickling her ribs and she had began squirming and when she woke up she gave me a pouty face. "Having fun Luna?" "We were having a good dream about thou, we expect that thou will compensate us in the near future," I smiled and nodded. "Good then we are happy...For now," I laugh and get up. "I'm gonna go check on Frosty and see how he is doing I'll be back later, have fun on the games," I grab my clothes and get dressed in the bathroom. "See ya when I get back Luna!" with that I exited the door and made my way to Frosty's work. "Hey Frosty you here?!" I saw my familiar blue haired friend poke his head out from behind the counter but instead of his usual cheery smile it was replaced with depression and sadness. "You okay Frosty?" "No....Every time I try to tell myself it wouldn't work out between Rainbow Dash and I, I get more depressed..." He then curled up into a ball of depression under his desk. "Damn it Frosty get up....I'm going to get you a date. Sit here and attend to your customers whilst I go get your date," I sprinted out of the door and towards Fluttershy's cottage. After a few minutes of catching my breath I knocked on Fluttershy's door. "I'm coming," I heard the quiet girl say, soon after her door opened and she looked happy to see me. "Fluttershy I have a favor to ask of you," She began intently listening as I explained to her Frost's depression. "And that is why I would like you to take Frosty on a date...I'm worried about him," after she had finished listening to my story she agreed to take Frost on a date. "Thank you Fluttershy, I'm in your debt!!" I lead her to Frost's work and she saw the depression vortex known as Frost so I left to go do my own thing. "See ya Frosty," As I entered the door I was met with a hug from Luna. "Woah! What's going on, you seem overly excited to see me." I slowly but surely returned her hug," "We were bored being all alone, and we missed you," I smiled warmly to her. "It's okay Luna I missed you too while I was gone. Are you hungry?" She nodded and blushed as her stomach growled at the word hungry. "Okay what would you like to eat I can make something here to eat or we can go buy something?" "We wish to eat here," I laughed as my own stomach growled and we both went to the kitchen. "What would you like? A sandwich?" She nodded and I made both of us PB&J sandwiches and she took a cup of water as I took an apple juice box. "So Luna what did you do while I was gone?" "We played video games as thou suggested, We also slept, and took a show-" I took this opportunity to cut her off. "I think that is detailed enough," we both laughed and finished our meal in silence. When we had finished and I had washed the dishes Luna challenged me to a round of super smash brothers and won for obvious reasons. "So Luna I would like a heads up. Can I sleep peacefully tonight or are you going to send your 'Minions' after me," She thought long about an answer to get under my skin. "That is for us to know and for thou to find out," She was thoroughly pleased with my cold stare and gave an innocent smile. "Luna if you plan on sending those six devils after me at least make it easy on me and try not to break my stuff," She giggled. "No promises Jack," My face went from smiling to a deadpan expression. I quickly thought of a retort but I was having a hard time coming up with one so I just said whatever was on my mind. "If you break my locks, you are paying for them," I knew this petty excuse for a threat was nothing to the princess of the night but I had to try. After all it's better to try and fail than to never try at all. She giggled at this threat and gave me a big hug almost suffocating me for the second time today. 'Luna is going to be the death of me,' I tried to speak but the only thing that came out of my mouth was jibberish and after a few seconds Luna let me go. "Jack it's cute when thou comes up with petty threats," This caused me to give up and stop trying to fight against the princess of the night. "Fine you win princess, I give up. It's like arguing with a brick wall when arguing against you," My mind wandered to how Frost was faring in his date with Fluttershy but currently I had more pressing issues so I turned and headed to my room and made sure nothing was sabotaged. "Oh thank Celestia everything is okay," "Hey Luna, How long do you think Celestia is going to be mad at you?" I asked as I walked out to the front room to see Luna sprawled out on my couch pretending to be asleep. "You shouldn't leave yourself so vulnerable." I launched my first of many tickle barrages only to make Luna squirm and giggle. "The only way you're going to get out is if you surrender!" I began to tickle more. "We surrender!!!! We surrender!!!" I stopped my barrage of tickling and she calmed down. "Don't do that again Jack, or the consequences will be dire..." She gave me an icy glare that could turn even Medusa to stone. I could feel her eyes burning at my soul. "You got it Luna. Don't tickle you unless I want to be raped by three of our six resident celebrities. I'll keep that in mind." I gave her a smile and I sat on the recliner chair. "So, what do you want to do because I'm out of ideas and I'm bored out of my mind, metaphorically of course," She got a devilish grin and scooted to the end of the couch closest to me. "We could go play a prank on Twilight Sparkle." Immediately I stood up and opened the door with a minor flourish. "After you Milady." After I had locked my door we had made our way to town and to Twilight's library holding a small conversation on how we were going to prank Twilight and after a few ideas we decided that giving her poison joke would be the funniest. "This is going to be amazingly funny." I smiled and knocked on the door leaving the poison joke in a bouquet of blue hydrangeas. As expected Twilight opened the door and picked up the flowers smelling them. She saw Luna and I running. "JACK, LUNA!!!! THIS WASN'T FUNNY!" I yelled back. "I BEG TO DIFFER!!!" and not too long after Luna and I arrived at my front door slowing to a casual walk. "That was fun Luna but I think we should apologize some time in the future." We both nodded and headed inside seeing it was four o' clock. "Maybe I should go check on my equipment before anything happens, that is if anything happens," I checked on my monitors and door locks and Luna came into my room shutting both doors and sitting next to me. "Uhhh Luna...? What's going on?" "Nothing Jack we just wish to cuddle next to you while you work," I looked a the doors confused and I get up examining the door. "And about locking the doors?" I looked at the doors examining it as if looking at it would tell me the answers I wanted to know. "Freedom is your incentive for cuddling with us," I shrugged and sat next to Luna continuing my work as she cuddled my right arm. She was fairly warm and for the most part she was cozy. I knew I had to break this soon or else I wouldn't be able to stop. So I quickened my analysis and finished within five minutes. "Okay Luna my analysis has passed now I expect you to hold true to your word," I stood and walked to the door and waited patiently for her to undo the lock she had put on it. "Thank you Luna...If nothing happens tonight I might just cuddle with you," I gave her a wink and headed to the kitchen for an apple juice box "Mmm that's good apple juice," I sat on the couch and played some games and Luna had joined me and before I knew it, it was 11:55 pm and I shut off the game to stretch and head to my back room. The five minutes passed painstakingly slow but none the less nothing happened so I let Luna in to the room and I headed to the guest room. "Night Luna," as I passed her she spun on her heel. "Thou didn't think we forgot what you said earlier did thou?" I smacked myself inwardly for forgetting what I said earlier and so I made my way to the guest room and I opened the blinds. Luna looked at me questioningly. "I thought we could look at the stars as we cuddled," I smiled sheepishly as I grabbed my pajamas and headed to the bathroom to go change. Five minutes later I came back out and decided to lay down on the bed as Luna joined me after putting her own pajamas on. "Ready to cuddle?" She nodded at a speed almost matching Pinkie Pie. She laid down next to me and I cuddled with her until she fell asleep. "So cute..." as I tried to get up she tightened her grip on me giving a pouty face I decided to just lay back down and fall asleep and as my breathing regulated I fell into a deep sleep having an amazing dream that I would have liked to never end.
